Good evening. My dad is likely diagnosed with Alzheimer's by a blood test. However, the research took place in England and he has to wait for one more study, which will not be until September. Who can I go to with him to speed up the diagnosis? He wants to do tests in Poland or take him to a specialist who will be able to determine whether he has this disease. I will add that he is only 60 years old and one of the symptoms are shaking hands, hypertension and type 2 diabetes. I will be grateful for any help

Symptoms of Alzheimer's disease affect the mental sphere - there are primarily problems with memory and memory: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/choroba-alzheimera-10-najwazniejszych-pytan Diabetes or hypertension are separate disease entities.
